    Tried to get the wife to snap pictures coming down the back roads from dinner tonight, since I got them angled downward and functioning as fogs should!

    A code? I still have the previous device so functionality isn't totally lost. Asensetek is going to hear about this in every information channel possible.

    More appropriate for the headlight thread rather than fog lights. The technology is cool, though I’d find the ‘lane carpet’ feature distracting. Here is a more concise albeit more marketing video from Audi covering the technology:

    Installed the Diode Dynamics SS3 pro this morning. They fit perfect and are super bright! Supposed to get some snow this evening. I will try and take night shots in weather.

    Not sure the reason behind the question?
    There’s only one way it fits.

    They're correct, the high/longer bezel edge is on the interior/more towards midline of truck.

    The brackets are also marked with RH LH markings.

    It looks like its rotated 'wrong' as the lettering/branding is on the left side, normally the branding/visible lettering like that is on the top or bottom so it looks like its positioned right, at least in my experiences.

    I'm not saying it's installed wrong, I just think that's where the question stems from. I thought the same thing when I saw that.

    Looks good - Might have to add this to my "to-do" list haha. Both my factory fog bulbs died, so about time to upgrade anyways.

    I see what you’re saying now. Maybe I’ll take some rubbing alcohol and get rid of white lettering.
